Self-Employed Makes My Sim Home An Open House

I made my sim self-employed. I then started to notice that random sims are just coming in my house univited! I would have my sims out doing something around the island. I would then go to her home to select whatever for her to do at home and there would be a stranger in the house on the computer. I would then direct my sim to ask said sim to leave! They don't walk out the front door they just disappear as if they were out in the town and you direct them to go home, they would walk a distance and disappear.

Has anyone else had this issue? Or is that what's suppose to happen when self-employed?

I had to lock the front door but that creates other issues when family or friends come over. Sometimes I don't see them and even when I do, I'll unlock door to try to invite in or invite to hang out at current lot and the option does not show in the pie menu.

I don't use mods or CC!

  • Yes, the private dwelling lot traits helps to curb that problem in Sulani. You can also lock all the exterior doors to your home for "household members" only.
  • Well the private dwelling didn't work for too long! I just had a NPC walk straight through the house and out the patio door to the lanai to get to the ocean. My doors are now locked. I was trying not to lock the doors due to how I like to play! But I have to lock them if I want to keep the strangers at bay! Oh well. Hopefully that's looked into but I doubt it!
  • Apparently the latest update patch has a new door feature called "no trespassing", I'm not quite sure exactly how it works (I haven't updated yet) but you might want to give that a try if you're not keen on the "lock door" feature?
  • @AncientMuse I'm about to play in a few and test it out. I was actually suppose to try it last night but forgot about it and also I did't play with the sim in Sulani! I'll post findings later tonight after I play with the new EP for awhile.
